Est. Return 8/2/2025
Injury not major
Buonanotte rolled his ankle in the pre-season friendly against Las Palmas but the injury doesn't seem to be that bad, coach Fabian Hurzeler told the media, according to The Athletic. "The injury doesn't seem to be that bad, but there was no opponent near him. Hopefully, he is fine. He has performed well in training and in games, so let's see how the situation develops."
ANALYSIS
Buonanotte was forced off limping in the 10th minute of a friendly against Spanish side Las Palmas after rolling his ankle. That said, the injury doesn't seem to be a big one, and the attacking midfielder shouldn't remain sidelined for long. Buonanotte hopes to play a role with the Seagulls this season after spending some time on loan with Leicester City last season.
